Chinese Vice President Xi Jinping met with members of the royal family from seven countries, namely Belgium, Denmark, the Netherlands, Qatar, Spain, Thailand and Tonga, at the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse.

It's really good to see such great press focus on the Prince Felipe and Princess Letizia. They really enjoyed watching the games, and are really enthusiasm. Anyone has seen pictures of Princess Anne at the Opening Ceremony?So hard to find her!

We didn't get to see any of the royals in attendance on the US broadcast on NBC. They showed President & Mrs. Bush several times (looking bored! They even caught both of them looking at their watches!). I don't think there was even a mention of any royals aside from Princess Grace/Grace Kelly.

No, they didn't. Only their Majesties attended.
Haakon is scheduled to attend some events.
Mette-Marit won't travel to China at all (maybe it's a kind of boykott. I don't know. But it's okay if she doesn't want to attend, IMO).
The Royal couple is going to attend some sports events.

I think all of the CP's attending this event is doing pritty much like the danish CP couple. It is a visit to China which is rather un"official" - but along with having a great time supporting there teames - they also are promoting the interests of their respektive countries, and in accordiance with that they have an unofficial programe which also is in the interrest of China.
